@gingerw thanks for the response and i should have mentioned that I have had 3 cmp test done, the first 1 was on 8/2024 and my EGFR was 115, the second test was done on 11/2025 and my EGFR was 110 , and the third test was done on 2/2026 with a EGFR of 97.4 so 3 test show a steady trend of it going down. the reason for all these tests is that I have had swollen lymph nodes in my neck since April of 2024 and the dr I'm going to says my tests are fine and that its most likely just an infection that causes all my issues, but to me i think its something else since i started with 1 swollen lymph nodes that bigger than 1cm and now i have multiple that are 1cm with them not going away.

@silentstorm Your eGFR numbers are awesome! Have you had the concerns of the swollen lymph nodes addressed with your doctor, yet? Besides the eGFR values there are other results that would be cobbled together to get a clear picture of what is going on.
eGFR can be complicated by our hydration levels, time of day a sample is taken, if you recently exercised, or medications. Even a change in the processing lab.
